false
False. The weight of an object can vary depending on the gravitational force acting upon it.
False. The weight of an object can change depending on its location in the universe due to variations in gravitational force. Weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object, and this force can differ in different locations.
It is not the same. Read the Wikipedia article on "mass versus weight" for a detailed discussion.
False. The property of mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, not specifically how heavy it is. Weight, on the other hand, is a measure of the gravitational force acting on an object and can vary depending on the location in the universe.
No, but the weight does. Remember W=mg. If gold were measured by weight, you could buy ounces of gold in places with a low gravitational force and sell it for the same price-per-ounce in places with a high gravitational force. But ultimately gold is sold by mass....so there;s no money to be had in such a business. Too bad.

False. Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe, constituting about 75% of its elemental mass.
False it is not constant
There is no such privileged point in the Universe. You might say it is; but then, ANY other point is also the center of the Universe. Or it looks that way.
